WARNING
ELECTRICAL SHOCK
HAZARD
DO NOT touch a hot oven
light bulb with a damp cloth
as the bulb could break. Should the bulb
break, disconnect electric power to the
appliance at the main fuse or circuit
breaker before removing bulb to avoid
electrical shock.
WARNING
NEVER cover any slots, holes or passages
in the oven bottom or cover an entire
rack with materials such as aluminum
foil. Doing so blocks air  ow through
the oven and may cause carbon
monoxide poisoning. Aluminum foil
linings may also trap heat, causing a  re
hazard.
WARNING
BURN HAZARD
When self-cleaning, surfaces
may get hotter than usual.
Therefore, children should be
kept away. The oven door,
especially the glass, can get hot. Danger
of burning: DO NOT touch the glass and
children should be kept away.
CAUTION
To avoid sickness and food waste, DO
NOT allow defrosted food to remain in
the oven for more than two hours.
NOTICE
DO NOT turn the Temperature Control on
during defrosting. Turning the convection
fan on will accelerate the natural defrosting
of the food without the heat.
CAUTION
You must carefully check the food during
the dehydration process to ensure that it
does not catch  re.
DO NOT touch the exterior portions of the
oven after self-cleaning cycle has begun,
since some parts become extremely hot to
the touch!
During the  rst few times the self-cleaning
feature is used, there may be some odor
and smoking from the “curing” of the
binder in the high-density insulation
used in the oven. When the insulation is
thoroughly cured, this odor will disappear.
During subsequent self-cleaning cycles,
you may sense an odor characteristic of
high temperatures.
KEEP THE KITCHEN WELL-VENTED DURING
THE SELF-CLEAN CYCLE.
WARNING
To Prevent Fire or Smoke Damage
•Be sure all packing materials are removed from the appliance before operating it.
• Keep area around appliance clear and free from combustible materials, gasoline, and other  ammable vapors and materials.
• If appliance is installed near a window, proper precautions should be taken to prevent curtains from blowing over burners.
• NEVER leave any items on the rangetop. The hot air from the vent may ignite  ammable items and may increase pressure in
closed containers which may cause them to burst.
• Many aerosol-type spray cans are EXPLOSIVE when exposed to heat and may be highly  ammable. Avoid their use or storage near
an appliance.
• Many plastics are vulnerable to heat. Keep plastics away from parts of the appliance that may become warm or hot. DO NOT leave
plastic items on the rangetop as they may melt or soften if left too close to the vent or a lighted surface burner.
• Combustible items (paper, plastic, etc.) may ignite and metallic items may become hot and cause burns. DO NOT pour spirits over
hot foods. DO NOT leave oven unsupervised when drying herbs, breads, mushrooms, etc;  re hazard.
In Case of Fire
Turn o appliance and ventilating hood to avoid spreading the  ame. Extinguish  ame then turn on hood to remove smoke and
odor.
• Cooktop: Smother  re or  ame in a pan with a lid or cookie sheet.
• NEVER pick up or move a  aming pan.
• Oven: Smother  re or  ame by closing the oven door. DO NOT use water on grease  res. Use baking soda, a dry chemical or
foam-type extinguisher to smother  re or  ame.
• GREASE–Grease is  ammable and should be handled carefully. DO NOT use water on grease  res. Flaming grease can be
extinguished with baking soda or, if available, a multipurpose dry chemical or foam type extinguisher. Let fat cool before
attempting to handle it. DO NOT allow grease to collect around the oven or in vents. Wipe up spillovers immediately.
Child Safety
• NEVER leave children alone or unsupervised near the appliance when it is in use or is still hot.
• NEVER allow children to sit or stand on any part of the appliance as they could be injured or burned.
• DO NOT store items of interest to children over the unit. Children climbing to reach items could be seriously injured.
• Children must be taught that the appliance and utensils in it can be hot. Let hot utensils cool in a safe place, out of reach of small
children. Children should be taught that an appliance is not a toy. Children should not be allowed to play with controls or other
parts of the appliance.
